nothing great about colonizing nations by cheats, thieves and murderers

Idealism & Sensationalism are good but definitely not when it comes to the sad and unfortunate reality.

Lets face it, you have to clean your own house(fix politics/politicians/policies within india) first before you can blame the outsiders on the state
of the Indian Politics.

Good reply, if your internal matters project weakness and chaos then external attacks will happen and that is happening to India for several hundred
years now.

And I would add, that for any country politicians, leaders etc. are not from outside, they are folks from within the population, hence changing of the
culture is required before any structural changes are able to install themselves. Russia adopted free market economy but inherent culture remained
communist and hence huge levels of corruption and mismanagement still prevalent in the society. Internal culture requires changes. Laws can be made
and changed but if the implementation is inefficient then they will do no good.

i don't think that the indian gov is solely responsible for making everything superb in my country, a good amount of the mess is BY THE BRITS and
please stop pointing at my nation's gov for not doin enuf .. i give them credit for atleast trying ..

on the british empire they were responsible for deaths of upto 1.8 billion indians.
The mass holocaust by the british empire in india was indeed the greatest:
NCERT and indian historian estimates indian deaths due to british genocide at 150-250 million.But real figures are higher with levels of 1.8 billion.

It is estimated that 1.8 billion Indians died avoidably from dire deprivation under the British, notable atrocities including 10 million Indians
butchered in reprisals for the 1857 uprising (see Amaresh Misra's book “ “War of Civilizations: India AD 1857” –(Volume I -The Road to Delhi;
& Volume II- The Long Revolution) ” : warofcivilisations.blogspot.com... ), the Great Bengal Famine of 1769-1779 (that killed 10 million
Bengalis, 1/3 of the population), 2 centuries of British-imposed famines that killed scores of millions, most notably in the latter half of the 19th
century and culminating in the 1943-1945 Bengali Holocaust, the man-made atrocity in which 6-7 million Indians in Bihar, Bengal, Assam and Orissa
were deliberately starved to death by the British in the World War 2 Bengal Famine (see the transcript of the BBC broadcast “Bengal Famine”
involving me, Nobel Laureate Professor Amartya Sen and other scholars: www.open2.net... ; see also
Gideon Polya's book “Jane Austen and the Black Hole of British History”:
globalavoidablemortality.blogspot.com... ). www.countercurrents.org...

This is more evidence (if more evidence were wanted) of India “moving forward” (to quote the horrible contemporary Newspeak) after suffering 2
centuries of genocidal British rule in which avoidable deaths in India from British-imposed deprivation in the period 1757-1947 totaled 1.8 billion,
an Indian Holocaust and an Indian Genocide as defined by Article 2 of the UN Genocide Convention. Using census and other estimates of Indian
population in these periods, post-invasion excess deaths totaled 0.6 billion, 1757-1837; 0.5 billion, 1837-1901 under Queen Victoria; and 0.4 billion
in 1901-1947; this being 1.5 billion in total and 1.8 billion victims if the carnage in the various royalty-ruled Indian British Protectorate States
are included. mwcnews.net...

Madhusree Mukerjee systematically successively analyzes the background to the Bengali Holocaust in a prologue that deals with British India and the
massive recurrent man-made famines, commencing with the 1769-1770 Bengal Famine in which 10 million people died due to British greed. Not quoted is
Amaresh Misra’s book “War of Civilizations: India AD 1857” that estimates that 10 million people died in British reprisals for the 1857 Indian
rebellion. While the appalling famine history of British India is outlined the genocidal aspect is downplayed. Thus it can be estimated from
British census and comparative mortality data that 1.8 billion Indians died prematurely less than 2 centuries of British rule. While Mukerjee
makes clear the British economic exploitation of India, she downplays the reality that endemic poverty and hunger in India made it possible for a
distant island of scores of millions to rule hundreds of millions of disempowered Indian subjects with the help of well-fed sepoys and other
collaborators... mwcnews.net...

libertytoall he's right.Indians have the british accent rather than the american one.I have recruited indians for my franchises in Ghaziabad and
Noida.Also recruited indians for my franchises in Doha,Qatar.These guys make excellent managers.

Indians gotta excuse their excessive racism as a means to ignore their own responsibility in creating the country they have. Blame something, move on.
Corruption stays the same but the people are just that bit more nationalistic and easy to brainwash.

correction : "in creating the country they have" is actually in creating a country of what was left after the Brits quit.

I think I spelled out the situation in India well. To take my advice is a step forward. Indians are so misguided about what they are. They should
learn that you can't brag / boast your feelings of inadequacy away. Just deal with the inadequacy or shut up.

If you think these are cheap digs, that's your assessment of the state of affairs in India as far as I'm concerned.

Maybe when you are half of what you say you are you will feel vindicated and allow yourself to be India and not some strained, thinly veiled vision of
self hate. I look forward to that date.

Indians are shameless, they do not like critism even if it is justified and points to items that can be easily corrected. No wonder a country 1/3rd
their size is poking them in the eye for last 50 years.
